BIRD 2.15

Hoi,

Thanks for the release! I was wondering about this one:
   o Static routes can have both nexthop and interface specified
Could I not have already been able to set 'route 192.0.2.1/32 via
100.64.0.1%eth0 onlink' ? If this is different, can you share a canonical
syntax ?

By the way, the following yields a crash upon startup of Bird 2.14 (perhaps
in 2.15 also, I will check):

protocol static s1 {
  ipv4 { export all; };
  route 192.0.2.1/32 via 192.168.10.2%e0 *onlink bfd*;
}

root at vpp0-3:~# bird -p
root at vpp0-3:~# birdc configure
BIRD 2.14 ready.
Connection closed by server
root at vpp0-3:~# journalctl -u bird-dataplane --since 22:00 | grep killed
Mar 10 22:10:34 vpp0-3 systemd[1]: bird-dataplane.service: Main process
exited, code=killed, status=11/SEGV
Mar 10 22:10:35 vpp0-3 systemd[1]: bird-dataplane.service: Main process
exited, code=killed, status=11/SEGV
Mar 10 22:10:35 vpp0-3 systemd[1]: bird-dataplane.service: Main process
exited, code=killed, status=11/SEGV
Mar 10 22:10:35 vpp0-3 systemd[1]: bird-dataplane.service: Main process

Perhaps enabling BFD on such a static route is ill advised.
